SENEGAL IN NEED OF CLOTHING AND EVERYDAY SUPPLIES
Senegal is a country in West Africa and has a population of 16.7 million people with 46.7% living below the poverty line. Naomi, who regularly attends CUC is originally from Senegal and is collecting items to ship to Senegal at the end of March. She is looking for items such as summer and winter clothing & footwear (children, women & men’s), crockery & cutlery, pots, pans, sheets, pillows, toys etc. But please no books. If you have any items that will help Naomi would you please leave them in the Church Office and mark with “Senegal”.
INVITE SOMEONE TO CHURCH OVER EASTER
A recent article from the National Church Life Survey (NCLS) motes that ‘four in ten Australians’ are open to attending church services if invited’. And ‘People are more receptive to attending church at a significant time like Easter’ – so why not invite someone to join us this year!
